Using a high intensity halogen projection lamp, this unique mini planetarium projects hundreds of stars, star clusters, galaxies, planets and constellations visible from the northern hemisphere on walls and ceiling as they rise above a realistic 360 degree city skyline.

Select season, month, date, and hour in the past, present or future to view hundreds of sky objects. The 170 brightest stars glow in the dark, making it also useful as an outdoor 3-D sky map!
